But I Really Wanted to Be an Anthropologist

But I Really Wanted to Be an Anthropologist is an introduction to the world of Margaux, a charming 30-something living in Paris, navigating the world as an illustrator. This diary documents her day-to-day existence with her boyfriend and young daughter, drinking and smoking, and the difficulties of a persistent and precocious child. Anyone who’s ever worn inappropriate shoes to the supermarket or danced around the house in their underwear will be charmed by Motin’s irreverent humor. Praise for But I Really Wanted to Be an Anthropologist: "A great choice for a beach read—or a guilty pleasure." —Publishers Weekly
